Welcome!

After many months of hard work we've finally unveiled the brand new look for your community section. This blog is just one of the ways things have changed, giving us a new method of passing on exciting new content, competitions, information and updates from TheSite.org.


So I thought it'd be worth letting you all know some of the new features we've added, and mentioning some of the amazing services we continue to run.


You won't want to miss our new screensavers in the brand new Waste Time section, you might even spot a few familiar faces!


We've also got the new Meet the mod articles for everyone familiar with the discussion boards. It's a chance to get to know the people who often volunteer a huge amount of time to help keep the boards a nice place for everyone. You can read it in the Social, our new location for everything boards and chat related.


Our Real Life section continues to provide incredible content, often written by you, that explores strange adventures, life challenges, vicious rants, and your thoughts on whether naked bellies really make summer special.


Our Need Help Now still continues to offer the best place for advice for young people in the UK. From the colossal and unique Local Advice Finder (collating over 16,500 entries on advice providers), through our expert answer service askTheSite, to the vital service provided by the Samaritans. It's simply the best place to go to find the help you need.


And last, but certainly not least we've got the Be Heard section, where all your views on everything under the sun are collected.


So welcome again, this is your section and we hope you all enjoy it. Please feel free to let us know what you think, and remember you can always get involved yourself.
